go to bed or die

I think it is a petition, but i am not sure. :)

Any prayer that's humble to god and not of evil god accepts ..... the songs says he's a prayer answering god ... just when we need him the most he is there...

A humble and earnest prayer is often referred to as a supplication. It is a heartfelt request made to a higher power in a spirit of humility and sincerity.

The prayer of the publican is found in the Bible in Luke 18:13. It is a humble prayer where the tax collector acknowledges his sins and asks for God's mercy, saying, "God, be merciful to me a sinner." This prayer highlights the importance of humility and repentance in one's relationship with God.
